Eachine in collaboration with Skyzone is about to release two new FPV goggles with built-in RapidMix receiver, DVR, and HeadTracker. While the Cobra S features an 800X480 LCD and MJPEG recording, the more expensive Cobra X a 1280X720 screen and H264 compression. Both FPV headsets are available in black and grey colors.
The Eachine Skyzone Cobra goggles are powered by a single 18650 type battery. Via the DC-input port (6.5-25.2V), you can use also an external battery pack (2-6S).
As you can see in the image below, all the In/Out plugs are found at the bottom of the FPV goggles.
Price and availability
Both versions can be pre-ordered from Banggood. While the Cobra S VGA is priced for $169.99, the Cobra X HD for $224.99. Unfortunately, the expected order processing time is not shown on their website.

I really love how comfortable are these Eachine Cobra goggles. You can hardly feel them on your face.
Hi there,
I found your website when I was looking for something else and I really like your blog because you aren’t trying to bombard me with buying stuff. I was looking at your Accessories and Cases page and I was just wondering if you can help me find a case for my new Skyzone Cobra S goggles?
I cannot find a case that will hold my goggles safely so I thought what the heck “I’ll ask you folks!
Can you make a recommendation because I’m not having any luck at all?
I also sent my friend your blog link and he’s really enjoying you folks as well.
Thanks for the great content and not killing me with ads lol!
Thank you,
HLato
Thank you for your kind comment!
Unfortunately, It looks that there is no dedicated case for the Cobra goggles. I checked eBay and other RC shops… Maybe you should look for a universal FPV goggles case. iFlight has such a thing for a reasonable price.
It has very bad battery life. Can’t work for more than 15 minutes!
Is the additional resolution really worth it?
Hi, I saw your post and I thought about giving you my advice so here it goes.
I am just learning to fly with FPV goggles and I just purchased the Skyzone Cobra S and I have to tell you that these goggles are excellent. The clarity in the lenses is perfect and the software is really easy to navigate.
It has a great DVR system in it and the recordings are of hi-quality. I am really glad I bought these goggles because not only are they at a very reasonable price they are very well made. The X goggles only offer a higher resolution so for the money the S model is much better for a novice like me who doesn’t want to spend more than $200.00 for goggles. Currently, I am using them to learn to fly on the Velocidrone simulator and you also have sound so that helps a whole bunch. I hope I have helped a little.
Good luck,
HLato
I need a little help. Do expensive FPV Goggles really help? Or these Eachine Skyzone Cobra are good for a newbie FPV player?
What about people with dioptric glasses?
BG says ‘The goggle support pilot wear glass while fling‘
To be honest till know, I didn’t found any box-goggles that can be weared with medical glasses.
